    I wasn't that impressed with Hatton...

    Ok, I'm a Brit before you start having a go.

    But anyway, let's get a few things straight.

    The yanks were pretty deluded before this fight, like I've always said and everypost about Paulie, Paulie is well overated! apart from a starved Cotto that nearly put him in a body bag with a broken jaw who has Paulie faught? seriously. He's a tough cookie I'll give him that.

    It's an OK win for Hatton, that's about it. I wanted to see a KO.

    However, on a good note, Hatton looked more composed and not nearly as tired as I've seen him throughout his career. Hatton rocked Paulie off jabs as well.

    No doubt Paulie has the few inch advantage in height and arm reach and should have boxed Hatton all night..what happened? maybe it was true what Paulie said...Hatton is awkward.

        Malignaggi is the most overrated fighter in his division. He can't punch, he's a joke. Someone like Bradley would KO him.

              I WAS impressed by Hatton his stamina was 1st class his speed evident and he wasnt holding it was Paullie but most impressive was the power i didnt think he could hurt Mallinaaggi with single head shots but thats exactly what he did!

              BUT its easy to bully a guy who throws almost exclusivly with the left and carries no power.

              Mallinaggi i have felt has been over rated for some time and Hattons so called decline over exaggerated

                The thing that impressed me was Hatton instead of being the inside fighter was outboxing Paulie from the distance, many people said that was an impossible feat for Hatton to do.

                    Yeh i agree everyone said hatton would never outbox paulie, he proved them all wrong.
